Wasn’t she the ref who blew here first call when she missed the ball hitting the leg of a player on a punt and screwed up a turnover in the process? I remember the tv crew mentioning it and when they were informed it was her they dropped it like a hot potato.

So what happens when an NFL player bangs one of these female officials which will 100% happen eventually, then the game will be even more corrupt with the female refs giving the player she’s bangings team every call. It will turn into one if those femal prison guard with a male inmate situation helping them escape. This will be a disaster

I don’t know about most women. I know my wife sees every damn thing even when I think she’s not looking. They might as well get rid of instant replay because once a woman has given their opinion there is no changing it lol.

I don’t care if the officials or head coaches are men or women; black, white, green, red, yellow, plaid.. color is of no concern either. All that matters is that the chosen candidates are competent to handle the position in question. All of this “affirmative action” type of nonsense is nothing more than reverse discrimination, intended to inject more “diversity” into the workforce. This will result in “diverse” applicants receiving jobs they aren’t actually qualified for, and qualified candidates being rejected. None of that is good for anyone. Welcome to PC America in the 21st century.

If they are competent then it’s fine. If it’s for some kind of ‘affirmative action’ then it’s total BS. Further, they had better be totally prepared for the criticism, and the journalists better leave the overplayed misogyny card in the drawer when (not if) the criticism comes.

All officials make mistakes-the criticism will come, and it’s based on perception of the fan rooting for a specific team-remember that progressive sportswriters.

I’m neither a Mark Cuban fan or hater, but that dude looks like Nostradamus right now. He completely nailed it about the league. This WWE-NFL that we are experiencing right now is easily the worst I have seen this league since I’ve been alive.

Ever since he made those comments, I have seen this league take a complete nosedive. The fact that we even know Dean Blandino exists is a prime example of what this league has become. Most of the news that I’ve seen the past few years has been 80% off-field and 20% on-field. The game isn’t even primary anymore it seems. Looking at how the halftime show for the Super Bowl is being advertised more than the game itself pretty much confirms those fears.

If women can inject some integrity and consistency into this game, I’m all for it. But at the end of the day, they just need to hire whoever is most qualified for the position. Who cares about gender, race, etc.

in any field of endeavour where one class of people is so far out ahead of all others by having so completely unfair advantage in opportunities and/or resources, how besides some form of affirmative action would you suggest to level the playing field for all other groups of people, sir?
